Trident Test Firing

I asked the Secretary of State for Defence to agree that, much as there is no doubt about the valour of the men and women of the Royal Navy who keep us safe, we must equally use discretion when talking about the weapons systems that they use to keep us safe. The Secretary of State agreed with me and said that we owe it to the crews on whom a lifetime obligation of secrecy is placed that we do not to break the security classification of the information surrounding the deterrent, nor treat that information in any frivolous way.
